How to get along at work

For the Creator

  1. Give the Connector a clear reason and a small pilot before proposing a big change.
  2. Say when you need focus time, so the Connector doesn’t read it as you shutting them out.

For the Connector

  1. Try the Creator’s idea as a short experiment before deciding it won’t work.
  2. Don’t read the Creator’s quiet in meetings as disinterest — share the agenda ahead so they can prepare.

Work style

Creator

Exploratory and immersive. Creators need flexible time, inspiring surroundings and ownership of the craft.
